Acerca do autor
Voltaire (1694-1778) is widely recognized as one of the greatest writers of the Enlightenment period. Born François-Marie Arouet in Paris, France, Voltaire was a philosopher, historian, and writer known for his wit, criticism of Christianity, and advocacy of freedom of speech and religion. His diverse literary output includes plays, poems, novels, essays, and historical and scientific works. Voltaire's relentless pursuit of justice and his critiques of the French establishment made him a central figure in the intellectual movement that influenced the French Revolution and modern Western thought. His most famous work, "Candide," remains a seminal piece in Western literature, illustrating his ability to blend satire, wit, and philosophical discourse.
